after taking carigan to her yearly well-check visit, the pediatrician recommended that she read a book everyday!
i just loved the fact that she mentioned that right along side all the safety rules and healthy eating habits.
She explained to my daughter that reading was food for the brain.
we put a lot of emphasis on reading over the summer, but we don't want our children to stop just because school has started.
so, bug'em came out on the first day of school with some special surprises for the girls :)
they both found him in their very clean rooms with books and a few pieces candy.
it makes me happy that they both have started reading these books before even touching the candy!
Madeline's teacher wants her students to read a book a day, we're keeping a log. Sometimes it's hard to keep up with though. I'll have to do something cute and fun like this to motivate Madeline.
